Other then collecting $30,000 and warming a seat for three months in Topeka, what has Sen. Terry Bruce done for Reno County? After looking at his legislative record, one is hard-pressed to find a single accomplishment, unless you consider extending the retirement age for District Court Judge Richard Rome to be an achievement.

Sen. Bruce is part of the established political elite of Reno County, a "good old boy" whose ilk has run this town and state far too long. He has attained membership in the most exclusive club in Kansas, our Senate, and will likely remain there because of the apathy of voters who are content to elect party operators who spend more time looking out for their political homeboys than the citizens who elected them.

With the likely ascendance of Sam Brownback to the governorship, I'm sure Bruce will make a lovely addition to the new governor's rubber stamp collection.
